A fan of The Big Bang Theory has shared an impressive recreation of Penny's apartment that they've built in The Sims 4. The design is being praised for its accuracy among fans of the TV show, and the best part is that players can download it and add it to their own copy of The Sims 4.

Though The Big Bang Theory went off the air back in 2019, the series has left a lasting impression on fans, which has been aided by The Big Bang Theory getting a number of spin-offs. The original sitcom gained considerable popularity and praise for both its humor based on nerdy subcultures and science, seeing increasing viewers every season through 2016. Now, a fan has brought one of the show's most frequent sights to life in The Sims 4.

Even with all of its possibilities, fans may find themselves out of ideas for a new story in The Sims 4 - these storylines will help liven things up.

The Big Bang Theory Collides With The Sims 4

A Sims fan called TheSimulatiomGirl has shared their build of the apartment belonging to Penny from The Big Bang Theory within The Sims 4. In addition to a series of screenshots, the player shared a video demonstrating how they made the build, which contains no custom content. Every room of Penny's apartment has been meticulously recreated, including the bedroom, bathroom, and living room. The likeness is excellent, and should be recognizable to any fan of the TV series. Those who like the build and want it for themselves can get it by accessing The Sims 4 Gallery and looking for it under the ID TheSimssGirl.

Other players in the comments have been quick to praise the build for its accuracy, saying that it looks "almost identical" to the original apartment. Some joked about a few minor missing elements, like the recreated apartment not being messy enough, which Penny's apartment was notorious for in The Big Bang Theory. Another joked about adding adhesive ducks to the recreated apartment's shower floor, referring to a classic episode of the show where Penny had to rely upon Sheldon for help after injuring herself falling in the bath, which Sheldon points out could have been avoided with adhesive anti-slip ducks.

Of course, Penny's apartment wouldn't be the same without her neighbors across the hall, Sheldon and Leonard. TheSimulatiomGirl has noted that they intend to make their apartment too, so that they have a proper apartment complex, just like in the show. Those who are interested in seeing it may want to stay tuned to the OP's Gallery or YouTube channel to see when they complete that part of the build, which they will likely make available for download like with Penny's apartment.

The Sims 4 Lets Fans Recreate Their Favorite Shows

There's arguably no real wrong way to play The Sims 4, with some players preferring to focus on building, others on the active lives of their Sims, and some choosing to recreate their favorite things in-game before sharing them with the world. To name just a few, fans have built things like the Charmed Halliwell Manor in The Sims 4, as well as the houses from TV series Shameless and Disney movie Encanto. There's no shortage of recreated versions of characters and families who were famous on TV, either, like The Addams Family, the cast of Friends, Game of Thrones' Jon Snow and Sansa Stark, and even Shrek.
